Exactly Regs - Closing the Byrd?!?!?!?
Holy shite - HUGE fcuking news!
The place is an institution man.
How many times have you been to that place?
I can assure you many hours and money mis-spent there in my youth...
The Rangers used to train in the gym at Len Shepherd, shower up, and then head over there weekly in the winter months.
We called it the Flamin-O back then and usually made our way over to Pancho & Lefty's after for to look for some raw Surrey talent.
Another iconic Whalley landmark going by the wayside.
Sad days coming, but that is change I guess.
Thanks so much Regs for bringing this little bit of nostalgia to our attention.
Oh, and this. I guess the "owners" are now cashing in.
When we wanted to slum it up, we'd skip Mug N' Jugs in New West, and make our way across the bridge. We'd dress down for this, of course. Try to blend in with the locals, but somehow they always figured out we were pretty boys from Coquitlam and pick a fight.
Surrey was scary.
